NELLIE PLEDGE put in a career best performance in winning here last time out and she can follow up that victory with success in this novice hurdle. The selection won on yielding-to-soft ground in point-to-points so the softer surface here shouldn't inconvenience her and she can defeat Darkest Flyer who has run well in two races since switching to this yard last month. Snugsborough Hall disappointed at Galway last time but had run well in defeating 23 rivals prior to that and can take third here.
